Trev Downey and Dave Hendrick have lasted in their RAW posts until the last game of the season because The Reds have been magnificent and Jürgen Klopp has worked wonders. In Kiev, an already stretched squad was shorn of it’s talisman after 30 minutes and it took two acts of incredible self-sabotage for the greatest squad in Europe to beat them. Trev and Dave reflect on the loss and look forward to the brightness in the future.
Trev Downey hosts the final Premier League RAW of the season and is joined by Hari Sethi to reflect on a successful campaign which saw The Reds clinch a top 4 finish and Champions League football with an emphatic 4-0 Anfield win over Brighton. The lads discuss the big picture issues and also burrow into the details of the comfortable victory and the performances of the players. Dave Hendrick, traumatised by Dejan Lovren’s goal, sat this one out, but the two lads are in good form as they look at the progress the club is making under Jürgen Klopp.
After a game in which Liverpool needed only a point to virtually secure Champions League participation next season, Jürgen Klopp’s men could not manage to secure it and suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat. On the day, many of the old reliables were well below par and there was an irritatingly familiar defensive lapse for the game’s only goal, BUT a win next week against Brighton and in three weeks against Real Madrid, and this will have been the finest season in decades. Trev Downey, Hari Sethi and Dave Hendrick look at both sides of the coined analyse today’s match.
Trev Downey is joined by his usual colleagues, Dave Hendrick and Hari Sethi, to react to Liverpool qualifying to meet Real Madrid in the 2018 Champions League Final!
Trev Downey is joined by his usual colleagues, Dave Hendrick and Hari Sethi, to react to the flat Anfield encounter that saw Liverpool and Stoke play out a scoreless draw. The Reds dominated possession but were atypically blunt in attack, with only two shots on target all afternoon. There was some questionable refereeing by Andre Marriner and at least one penalty that should have been awarded but overall this was one to forget, with a massive match against Roma in four days.
Trev Downey, Dave Hendrick and Hari Sethi return to record another RAW on a massively dramatic evening at Anfield in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, when Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool side went goal crazy and raced to an entirely merited 5-0 lead before some irritatingly daft errors allowed the visitors two late replies. A serious injury to Oxlade-Chamberlain has depleted the squad to dangerous levels but The Reds have certainly helped their chances reaching the final.
